Nothing is known of his private life. He wrote an exceptionally neat hand, and he had opportunities to copy some of the older Welsh manuscripts, e.g. the ' Black Book of Carmarthen ' and the ' White Book of Rhydderch,' possibly through friendships with Jasper
Griffith
. His interests were wide and there remain of his transcription collections of lives of saints (Llanstephan MS 34), a botanology

surviving personal letters written in the Welsh language, in which he explains to his mother the considerations which have led to his precipitate marriage to a well-endowed orphan girl. The letter has some historical importance, since it is written in a period when the Welsh gentry were becoming anglicized. By the will of his uncle, Edward
Griffith
of Llannerch, who died in 1601, Mutton inherited most of

on very bad terms with the Llwyn family, with the Lloyd family of Rhiwaedog, with the Owen family of Hengwrt, and these ill-wishers were joined by his own blood-relations of Cefndeuddwr (his great sin, it was said, was the pushing forward of his son

His was a lonely, prophetic voice, inspired by the Bible and the writings of Communist philosophers from Karl Marx to R. Palme Dutt. His volumes of poetry await their literary critic.

OWAIN, Syr DAFYDD
, cleric and poet
According to Camb. Biog., and Enwogion Cymru: a Biographical Dictionary of Eminent Welshmen, he flourished 1540-70. The statement in Enwogion Cymru: a Biographical Dictionary of Eminent Welshmen that he hailed from Maenan, Caernarfonshire, suggests that he may be identified with Dafydd ab Owen, rector of Nannerch and Llanddoged, and vicar of Eglwysfach, 1537 (J.
